A 25-year-old man who pleaded guilty to throwing six puppies from a moving vehicle on a highway last year has been sentenced to spend just 120 days in jail.

The judge sentenced Memphis Lor on four counts of torture of a companion animal on Monday.

The sentence is based on Lor’s ability to complete probation. If he isn’t able to follow the guidelines, he will face 4 consecutive sentences of 0-5 years. Lor was also fined $5,000 for each charge, but will only have to pay $750 in fines if he completes probation.

“I’m very sorry, and I wish I could go back,” Lor said during his sentencing hearing.

Lor will have to pay $5,329 in restitution to the Davis County Animal Control to pay for the treatment that the dogs underwent.

If Lor is successful through the probation process, he will only serve 120 days in jail, without the ability to earn time for good behavior. Lor’s probation is for 36 months, and during that time, he is required to undergo a mental health evaluation and follow any treatment plans that officials put in place.
